The EOS Annual Congress, one of Europe's leading scientific meetings in orthodontics, was held June 7-11 at the Convention Centre Dublin. The event marked Graphy's first participation in the conference.

At the exhibition, the company showcased its digital orthodontic solutions based on its proprietary 3D-printing material, Tera Harz, and its shape-memory aligner technology.

Shape-memory aligners are clear orthodontic devices designed to gradually return to their original form over time, applying controlled forces to move teeth. The technology is being developed to improve treatment efficiency and reduce the frequency of aligner replacement compared with conventional clear aligners.

According to the company, discussions during the conference included potential clinical applications and distribution partnerships with dental professionals and industry participants from the United Kingdom, Ireland, Eastern Europe and Northern Europe. Graphy also held business meetings with attendees from countries including Japan, China, Canada and Australia.

The company said it used the event to provide technical support and exchange clinical experience with existing European users of its products.

Graphy also noted that shape-memory aligner technology was referenced in presentations by several orthodontic researchers and clinicians, including Björn Ludwig, Wada Sabouni, Krishnaswamy Rengarajan and Wilson Lee.

“We were able to engage with a broad range of clinicians and industry stakeholders through our first participation at EOS,” a Graphy representative said. “We plan to continue pursuing opportunities to expand our presence in Europe, including discussions initiated in the U.K. and Ireland.”
